Shi Xiaonian was stunned. This was obviously not the voice of Gong Ou and Gong Yu. She looked towards the two men kneeling on the ground and saw a small player in Gong Ou's slender hand.
Still playing endlessly.
It was probably Gong Ou who had some of his words recorded, but he didn't even think about how he could win Luo Qi's favor with his level, and his tone was recorded happily.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, Luo Qi was so angry that he laughed and stared at the dishes on the table, "Reward you? Do you still think I should reward you?"
Everyone was sitting at attention on the long dining table, and no one dared to move their chopsticks.
Xia Yu glanced over here and found that the person kneeling on the ground was Gong Ou. She was stunned and was about to speak when Luo Qi said coldly, "Why, do you think you did a good job at this birthday party?"
The atmosphere is so weird.
Xia Yu blinked her eyes and looked at Shi Xiaonian again. Seeing that she didn't say anything, she sat down silently, closed her mouth, and watched the storm.
"We did it very uniquely and wanted to give Mrs. a big surprise!"
The voice played by Gong Ou was still cheerful.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian couldn't help but press her painful head. Couldn't Gong Ou hear Luo Qi's displeased tone from where she was kneeling on the ground
"Surprise? What a big surprise." Luo Qi sneered, staring at the pink soup in front of him and said, "In that case, I have to thank you very much. Get up and sit down together."
Gong Ou adjusted the tune on the player, and after a while he said, "We don't dare."
The hesitation in the process made Luo Qi even more convinced that it was intentional.
Luo Qi looked very ugly, "Are you afraid to sit down or eat the food you cooked? You have served the Gong family for generations. I have never deliberately scolded you, and I have never thought of firing you. You rely on this to Dare you act arbitrarily and make such a table of dishes to fool me?"
By the end, Luo Qi's tone was extremely serious, and even his voice became sharp.
Shi Xiaonian looked at the two men kneeling on the ground. It was estimated that Gong Ou would not be able to come up with any prepared words this time.
He didn't expect that a dish he was so confident about would receive such a negative review, right
The long silence made Luo Qi feel even more humiliated.
The little chef didn't even answer. She had never been treated like this before.
"Feng De!"
Luo Qi said coldly.
"What are your orders, madam?" Feng De stood aside and was sweating.
"All the chefs who participated in this birthday banquet will be given ten lashes, and all of them will be sent off at the next stop!" Luo Qi said coldly.
If we don't establish our authority, the Gong family will become more and more unruly.
"ah?"
Feng De was stunned. Give the two young masters ten lashes? How does he start
"What's wrong with you? Are you really so old that you can't hear clearly?" Luo Qi raised his eyes to look at Feng De, his eyes full of dissatisfaction, "This trip has made you all lose control of your play, hasn't it?"
Luo Qi was really angry.
She had clearly said before that she liked the harmonious atmosphere on the boat.
Shi Xiaonian touched her neck, which felt cold. She wanted to speak but didn't know how to speak.
Why does this birthday party seem to be getting worse
If Luo Qi knew that this was her suggestion, he would probably be dissatisfied with her.
"Madam, I'm sorry." Feng De lowered his head.
"Why don't you pull me down and do something?"
Luo Qi gave the order coldly.
“…”
Where did Feng De dare to move, not even if he stood aside to advance, nor to retreat.
The scene was stalemate.
Shi Xiaonian frowned. If Gong Ou didn't get up and speak clearly, he would be the adoptive father who would be whipped ten times if he didn't stop the farce.
She looked over and saw Gong Ou kneeling there and touching the player, probably looking for some sentence to play.
Gong Yu bumped into Gong Ou with his elbow, asking him to go faster.
Gong Ou was displeased and bumped back again. Gong Yu was almost knocked down. He turned to look at his younger brother and reached out to grab the player.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian's head was covered with black lines.
The atmosphere on the court was extremely awkward. No one dared to move their chopsticks, no one dared to laugh, and the two people off the court were having a great time grabbing the player.
Do these two people have obsessive-compulsive disorder
At this time, why don’t you stand up and explain that you have to perform the play perfectly? It couldn't be consummated. She didn't believe that Gong Ou could find a sentence in the player that could cope with the current situation.
There was only a "pop" sound, and the player fell to the ground during the dispute between the two.
"Madam, you rewarded me too little, please reward me more!"
An extremely cheerful voice sounded.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian really wanted to go back to the room.
Luo Qi was also stunned, and then uncontrollable anger appeared on her beautiful face. She turned around suddenly, "Don't you think ten lashes are too short? You deliberately want to insult me on my birthday... you !”
There is no chef collective in sight.
There were only two young men in chef uniforms kneeling on the ground, their hands intertwined as if fighting for each other. When they heard this, they raised their heads, and she saw two handsome faces that were all too familiar to her.
Luo Qi looked at them in disbelief and covered her mouth with her hand.
The two men immediately let go of each other and said to Luo Qi, "Happy birthday to my mother."
“…”
Luo Qi sat there, speechless.
“…”
Why no response
Gong Yu and Gong Ou looked at each other and wanted to say something more.
“…”
Mother must be too shocked. Someone who has always been elegant and noble can't handle such a scene. She must be given some buffering time.
When Shi Xiaonian saw this, he winked at Feng De, and Feng De raised his hand towards everyone.
Everyone stood up and shouted in unison, "Happy birthday, madam!"
The sound was deafening.
Luo Qi seemed to have just reacted as she sat there. She slowly turned around, raised her hand and forced a smile, "Thank you..."
One word came out of my mouth, but I couldn't say anything else.
When Xiaonian was the closest, she could clearly see that Luo Qi's eye circles were red.
"sorry."
After saying sorry, Luo Qi stood up and turned around and ran away.
It’s really about running.
The high heels made a "click" sound on the ground.
Luo Qi ran away with her long skirt in hand, losing her usual temperament.
Shi Xiaonian pursed her lips silently. After removing their temperament, the palace family members were almost the same as ordinary people. They all looked indescribable embarrassment.
Quiet, quiet.
The scene where even Gong Kui didn't speak was too quiet to describe in words.
On the stage decorated like a 4-dimensional oil painting, flowers bloom quietly.
"Mother's reaction..." Gong Yu slowly turned to look at his younger brother, "Is it also part of your plan?"
“…”
Gong Ou glared at him coldly, stood up from the ground, and glanced around.
Everyone lowered their heads in a tacit understanding, pretending not to see anything.
His eyes finally fell on the table, where almost every dish was untouched.
It turned out that no one had eaten it.
Shi Xiaonian walked towards Gong Ou and squeezed his chef's sleeve, "Are you okay?"
Gong Ou's eyes were dim and he looked down at her, "Is it terrible to eat?"
Shi Xiaonian couldn't bear the loss of Gong Ou. In the past few days, he hadn't slept well just because of the food on the table. He had always been conceited, so how could he have thought of such a situation...
"Of course not." Shi Xiaonian decided to put aside his conscience and said seriously, "Maybe it's just that the food you cooked is not in line with my mother's appetite. I think it is very delicious, especially the egg fried rice, which is different from others. , you make the best food."
“…”
Feng De glanced at Shi Xiaonian silently.
Hearing this, Gong Ou stretched out his hand to hold hers, holding it firmly
Shi Xiaonian gave him a smile.
Gong Ou hugged her into his arms, his eyes returned to confidence, and said, "I knew it was not my problem, how could the food I cooked not be delicious? It was some people who were holding back. Next time I will cook for the table alone. "
“…”
Uh, did she give Gong Ou some false confidence
As a "certain person", Gong Yu is depressed. In terms of cooking skills, he is not as good as Gong Ou? What a joke!
Forget it, he is the elder brother.
Don't argue with your brother.
Gong Yu glanced at the dishes on the table and said, "What should we do? The birthday party turned out like this."
"Maybe Madam is surprised."
Feng De said quietly.
"I'm surprised that I saw it, but I'm glad that I didn't see it at all." Gong Yu took off the chef's hat on his head, "Why don't I just grab two bottles of red wine."
It shouldn't be the case. Luo Qi's eyes were so red before he left. It couldn't be because the food was so unpalatable that he cried.
Shi Xiaonian thought about it and said, "I'll go see my mother."
"Okay, I guess she is willing to see you now." Gong Yu nodded, turned to Feng De and said, "Have someone remove this table of dishes."
The efforts of the past few days have been wasted.
"Yes, young master."
Feng De responded.
"No." Shi Xiaonian stopped her, "Don't leave yet, stay here. Let me talk about everything after I see my mother."
Gong Ou looked down at Shi Xiaonian and frowned, "Will she hit you? If she hits you, just run away and I'll take care of it!"
Luo Qi was so angry now that it was difficult to say anything.
"knew."
Shi Xiaonian smiled, let go of his hand and left.
Leaving the banquet hall, Shi Xiaonian walked directly to Luo Qi's room. The door was ajar. As she got closer, she heard soft sobbing.
Luo Qi really cried.
“…”
Shi Xiaonian bit her lip, stood at the door and looked in.
Luo Qi was seen sitting on the sofa with his back to her, sobbing softly, her voice was very low, as if she was trying to endure it. There was a white photo frame on the cabinet beside her.
In the photo, there are two teenagers, one old and one young.
The younger one had no smile on his face, as if someone owed him a lot of money.
It's a photo of Gong Ou and Gong Yu.
It turns out that Luo Qi also brought photos of Gong Ou when he was a child.
Shi Xiaonian rolled her eyes, took out her phone and sent a message, then reached out and knocked on the door.
Three soft sounds.
The sobbing inside suddenly stopped.
"Mother, can I come in?"
Shi Xiaonian asked.
"Wait a minute." Luo Qi's pretendingly calm voice came.
Probably taking care of himself, Luo Qi raised his voice after a moment, "Xiao Nian, come in."
When Shi Xiaonian pushed the door open and walked in, Luo Qi was already sitting facing her. There was no trace of tears on her beautiful face, only the red eye circles that could not be concealed. (To be continued)
